Influence of Tropical Cyclones on Outdoor Wind Environment in High-Rise Residential Areas in Zhejiang Province, China

Tropical cyclones can cause tremendous harm to coastal areas. This research aims explore the influence of tropical on outdoor wind environments in high-rise residential areas southeast provinces China, using Zhejiang Province as an example. It investigated four cities located Province, including Taizhou and Wenzhou representing cities, Huzhou Jiaxing inland collected data from 209 Of these samples, 131 with three typical spatial layouts (i.e., rows-style, free-style, courtyard-style) have been selected for further studies. Numerical simulation was conducted analyze environment types areas, where height buildings set 26 floors (75 m), during cyclones. Based a comparison velocity at horizontal planes 1.5 m high 10 high, it found that could mitigate negative impact environment. Specifically, courtyard-style layout led relatively small proportion speed (e.g., above 14.4 m/s) areas; free-style area area. In turn, better cope cyclones, suggested should be recommended provinces.
